• engine speed
• speed
• current consumption
• mileage
• fuel level (also for older clusters)
• coolant
• oil temperature (M52TU and M54)
• torque (diesel engines)
• power (diesel engines)
• ambiente temperature
• steering angle (only with DSC)
• speed of each wheel separately (only with DSC)
• longitudinal/transverse acceleration (only with DSC)
• Brake light indicator
